I had a question and wanted some advice between a couple of bike choices. I ride downhill, but I moved back to northeastern pa and there is only a couple of places to shuttle and for lift service I must drive.
People ride cross country loops around here, and I am debating between getting a cheap hardtail like a specialized hard rock or p bike, all mountain which would be around 600 or even less. I can get last years pitch for a very good price so that is a full suspension all mountain bike. For general riding and xc how much more does a full suspension help? and hurt on climbs for instance? Plus I want to spend the least amount of money as possible as i like DH better and have a lot of money into that rig already.
thank you for responses in advance
